Obama’s Friend Julian Castro Attacks Dan Patrick – Patrick Gets Conservative Badge of Honor

As a conservative, it is considered a badge of honor when a high profile liberal attacks you. As a conservative, if you are doing something right you will be attacked by liberals and Democrats.

Dan Patrick must be doing something right then. Dan Patrick is running for Texas Lieutenant Governor. Patrick has been publicly attacked by one of Obama’s friends. A national Democrat rising star. A staunch liberal. San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro.

I learned about the attack against Patrick from Facebook. A friend of mine shared Dan Patrick’s Facebook status photo (see photo above).

Congratulations Dan Patrick, you have been attacked by Julian Castro. You must really be doing something right. The liberals are afraid of you. They know you will not back down if you win your race, and that means they do not want you to win.

I do not consider an attack from a liberal as a negative thing. I consider it a badge of honor for a conservative to be making liberals so mad that they publicly attack you.

I am sure that Castro does not like Patrick because Dan Patrick was rated as the most conservative Texas State Senator this year.

This attack from Castro appears to have be a result of Patrick’s strong stance on securing the Texas/Mexico border. Conservatives believe in LEGAL immigration so that people can come make a better life for themselves. On the other hand, conservatives also believe in securing the borders from sex trafficking, and drug smuggling, and gun smuggling, and illegal immigration. A good portion of illegal immigrants who sneak over are violent criminals. Castro and Obama know that these illegals who are criminals will likely vote Democrat in order to be able to get more government benefits and milk the system that hard working taxpayers pay into. By opposing illegal immigration and wanting to secure the border, Patrick has made Castro mad because Castro will have less people who can vote for him.

Hispanics do not believe in illegal immigration.  I know many legal immigrants from Mexico. They worked to become American and they pay taxes. They feel betrayed that they had to work to become a citizen, but many criminals have come over illegally and commit crimes and give all immigrants a bad name. Immigration is not the problem. Hispanics are not the problem. Illegal Immigration is the problem because a big part of illegal immigration involves criminal activity and trafficking. We must protect our borders and Dan Patrick will do that.

Below is the facebook status of Dan Patrick that was shared with me. Above is the picture that went along with Patrick’s facebook status.

Dan Patrick

Obama's handpicked convention Speaker & the Mayor of San Antonio, Julian Castro, attacked me tonight for defending our borders. I told him back that I was proud to stand up and defend our borders and that it was his friend Obama who caused this illegal invasion! Can you help me get 10,000 LIKES to stand up to Mayor Castro & the left wing's pro-amnesty lobby.

Important! Texas Senate Democrats Might Pick Next Governor/LT Governor – Call Republican Senators NOW!

Please forward this important message!

Thank you Senator Dan Patrick for bringing this to our Attention!

I am going to make this as straight forward and simple as I can. I am not saying that the current Governor or the current LT Governor will win their elections, but we need to plan ahead just in case. The bottom line is, if the Governor, the LT Governor, or both win their election bids for President and Senate, then the Texas State Senate would be in complete control of picking the next LT Governor and/or Governor.  According to State Senator Dan Patrick, if this happens, it is a once in a life-time constitutional event that would be one of the most important and influential decisions ever. We MUST be prepared if this happens.

Democrats Could Pick our Next Governor! How Do We Prepare Ourselves?

The Republicans only hold a slim Majority in the Texas State Senate. There are 19 Republicans and 12 Democrats.

If at least 16 Republicans are not Completely United then the Democrats could very possibly pick the next Texas LT Governor and/or Governor! THAT WOULD BE DISASTEROUS. The Republicans hold the majority and therefore the Republicans should make that decision. Would the Democrats EVER let Republicans make this decision if they were the majority? NO!

We have to CALL or EMAIL all the Republican State Senators and ask them to join together and agree that the Republican Majority will be unified if this very important decision actually ends up happening. We also need to tell the Republican State Senators that the vote needs to be a public vote so that we can see how the votes are public because a Senator could tell us he/she is unified but then that Senator can break their promise in a secret vote.

Texas State Senator Dan Patrick Spoke to the SREC on October 1, 2011 Regarding a Unified Republican Senate Caucus Choice for LT Governor:

State Senator Dan Patrick came to our SREC meeting on Saturday, October 1^st, 2011. Senator Dan Patrick expressed to us the important and dire nature of this situation. He asked us on the SREC to urge the Senate Republicans to be unified and to have a public vote.

In response to Senator Patrick’s request, I had prepared a resolution to present to the SREC. The resolution was to urge to Senate Republicans to be unified and to have a public vote. Senator Dan Patrick urged the SREC to pass this resolution and called it the most important resolution that this SREC will have ever voted on.

After some minor changes, the Resolution passed nearly unanimously. Only 1 SREC member out of 62 members voted against the resolution.

 The Texas State Republican Executive Committee has Passed a Resolution Supporting a Unified Senate Republican Caucus Choice for LT Governor

Resolution Supporting a Unified Senate Republican Caucus Choice for LT Governor

Whereas, the primary function of the Republican Party of Texas is to elect candidates that embrace the principles articulated by the Republican Party of Texas Platform; and,

Whereas, grassroots Republicans have worked tirelessly to elect Republicans all across our great State; and,

Whereas, if either or both the Governor or the LT Governor win their elections to higher office, the Texas State Senate is required to select their successor; therefore, be it

Resolved, that the SREC urges the Republican members of the Texas Senate to join together and be unified in their selection of the Governor, and/or LT Governor if they are required to make such choices; and, be it further

Resolved, that the such votes in the Texas State Senate be record public votes; and,

Resolved, that a copy of this resolution be delivered by electronic mail to each Republican member of the Texas Senate for their signature or posted on the Republican Party of Texas website in a secure means which allows only those members or certified candidates to sign on electronically.

In Summary: PLEASE CALL or EMAIL YOUR REPUBLICAN STATE SENATOR!

Sincerely,

David Bellow

State Republican Executive Committeeman for Senate District 3
